Try something like this: $content = @file( '<filename>' ); $pattern = "/a onmouseover=\"window.status='show text';return true;\"> href=\"javascript:get(.*);/"; $result = @preg_grep( $pattern, $content ); The $result variable is an array, where the elements are all the matching lines from the $content array, which is your inputfile. You can then filter out the value you want using strpos, strrpos and substr. HTH Erwin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
